Objective To construct machine learning models based on preoperative inflammatory and radiological features for the prediction of glioma grading and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status, and to analyze application values of these models and identify the optimal predictive models. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of pathologically confirmed glioma patients admitted to Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University from March 2019 to March 2023. LASSO regression was used to screen feature variables, and predictive models were constructed based on logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), gradient boosting decision tree (XGBoost) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithms. The model performance was comprehensively evaluated using metrics including discrimination ability, area under the precision-recall curve (AUC), accuracy, F1 score and Brier score. The DeLong test was adopted to compare the AUC values among different models; Friedman rank-sum test was used to determine the overall performance differences of the models, with the Nemenyi test applied for multiple comparison correction. Results In the task of glioma grading prediction, the LR model achieved the highest comprehensive score (0.726), and no significant difference was observed between the LR model and the other four models; age was positively correlated with glioma grading (P=0.003). In the task of IDH mutation status prediction, the XGBoost model obtained the highest comprehensive score (0.832), which was superior to the LR (0.762, P=0.035) and KNN models (0.754, P=0.025), while no statistical differences were found between the XGBoost model and the RF or SVM models. Conclusions The LR model for glioma grading prediction and XGBoost model for IDH mutation prediction constructed based on a task-oriented strategy achieve a favorable interpretability while ensuring optimized performance, thereby providing reliable decision support for the individualized diagnosis and treatment of glioma.

Patients with gastric cancer undergoing postoperative chemotherapy often develop myelosuppression due to direct injury to the spleen and stomach caused by surgery， depletion of healthy qi by chemotherapy， impaired generation of ying （荣） qi due to spleen and stomach deficiency， and the accumulation of drug toxicity， which prevents ying qi from reaching and nourishing the bone marrow. Consequently， the bone marrow loses its nourishment and becomes unable to generate blood， leading to myelosuppression. This paper proposes that the core pathogenesis involves failure of the middle jiao （焦） pivot function， dysfunction of ying qi circulation， and insufficient nourishment of essence and marrow. Accordingly， Shengxian Decoction （升陷汤） combined with Danggui Buxue Decoction （当归补血汤） is used as the principal prescription to tonify the middle jiao and uplift center qi， thereby remedying the fundamental insufficiency of ying qi. Modified Compound Danshen Decoction （复方丹参饮） is applied to promote qi circulation， resolve stasis， remove toxin， and unblock collaterals， thereby resolving the obstruction preventing ying qi from reaching the bone marrow. Modified Dabuyuan Decoction （大补元煎） combined with Erzhi Pill （二至丸） is taken as the foundational formula to cultivate the root， replenish marrow， thereby modulating hematopoiesis in bone marrow.

[Objective]To explore the academic characteristics and the current status of active inheritance of the acupuncture and moxibustion schools in northern Zhejiang.[Methods]Through literature search,data query,personnel interview and other ways,collect the relevant records of acupuncture and moxibustion in northern Zhejiang,sort out the representative schools and summarize their common academic characteristics.[Results]Upon reviewing the literature,it was discovered that the acupuncture and moxibustion schools in northern Zhejiang had a long and storied history,holding a significant position within the academic system of the"Xiushui medical school".Through historical medical research and interviews,it was summarized that the acupuncture and moxibustion in northern Zhejiang possessed five major academic characteristics:precise acupoint selection,diligent study of classics,skillful application of techniques,compassionate medical practice and emphasis on moxibustion therapy.However,the schools faced challenges such as slow transmission,traditional methods and limited dissemination scope during the process of inheritance.[Conclusion]The acupuncture and moxibustion schools in northern Zhejiang have demonstrated distinct academic characteristics and potential for intergenerational innovation in acupoint theory,manual skills and humanistic care.Their inheritance practices have deepened the academic connotations of the"Xiushui medical school".In the future,it is essential to enhance the current status of active inheritance through modern technology and communication methods to promote the widespread dissemination and sustainable development of the academic ideas of northern Zhejiang acupuncture and moxibustion.

Objective:To investigate the current status of insomnia symptoms and executive function (EF) impairments among adolescents from regions with different economic development levels, and to analyze their relationship with depressive symptoms, so as to provide clues for improved depressive symptoms screening practices.Methods:This population-based cross-sectional study employed a multistage, stratified cluster random sampling method. During November 2017 to January 2018 and December 2018 to January 2019, a total of 2 495 adolescents aged 11 to 18 years were selected from Shanghai, representing a highly developed economic region, and 2 704 adolescents aged 11 to 18 years were selected from Shangrao city, Jiangxi province, representing a less developed economic region. The depressive symptoms were assessed using the short version of the 21-item depression, anxiety, and stress scale, based on which participants were categorized into groups with or without depressive symptoms. Insomnia symptoms and EF impairments were measured using a self-designed insomnia scale and the behavior rating inventory of executive function, respectively. Participants were further classified into 4 subgroups: neither insomnia nor EF impairment, EF impairment only, insomnia only, and comorbid insomnia and EF impairment. Chi-square test was used to compare the differences in basic information of adolescents from different regions. Multivariate Logistic regression models were applied to examine the associations between insomnia, EF impairment, and their combination with depressive symptoms as well as the differences in gender and school-stage among each subgroup.Results:A total of 2 305 adolescents were recruited from Shanghai (1 192 boys and 1 113 girls, 1 266 junior high school students and 1 039 senior high school students) and 2 250 adolescents from Shangrao (1 126 boys and 1 124 girls, 1 146 junior high school students and 1 104 senior high school students). The numbers of adolescents with depressive symptoms, insomnia symptoms and EF impairment in Shanghai were 460 adolescents (20.0%), 907 adolescents (39.3%), and 411 adolescents (17.8%), respectively, all of which were fewer than those in Shangrao, which were 616 adolescents (27.4%), 1 251 adolescents (55.6%), and 524 adolescents (23.3%), respectively (all P<0.001). In Shanghai, the numbers of adolescents with EF impairment only, insomnia only, and comorbid insomnia and EF impairment were 219 adolescents (9.5%), 670 adolescents (29.1%), and 237 adolescents (10.3%), respectively. And in Shangrao, the corresponding numbers were 193 adolescents (8.6%), 865 adolescents (38.4%), and 386 adolescents (17.2%), respectively. Compared to adolescents in Shanghai with neither EF impairment nor insomnia, the risk of depressive symptoms was all higher in adolescents with EF impairment only, insomnia only, and comorbid EF impairment-insomnia ( OR=2.86, 6.48, 20.10; 95% CI 1.57-5.22, 5.09-8.26, 13.66-29.58; all P<0.01). Similar results were observed in adolescents in Shangrao ( OR=3.22, 4.82, 10.91; 95% CI 1.66-6.28, 3.09-7.51, 7.26-16.40; all P<0.01). The analysis of gender and educational stage differences showed that, compared to the group neither EF impairment nor insomnia, the risk of depressive symptoms all higher in the groups with EF impairment only, insomnia only (all P<0.05), and comorbid EF impairment-insomnia, and the risk in comorbid EF impairment-insomnia group was the highest (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with adolescents in regions with underdeveloped economies, those in economically developed regions had lower rates of insomnia, EF impairment, and depression. Both insomnia and EF impairment significantly increase the risk of depressive symptoms. Their coexistence confers the highest risk and therefore warrants particular attention for prevention and intervention efforts.

Objective To investigate the role and molecular mechanism of SOX4 in Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)-mediated gastric mucosal epithelial dysplasia.Methods The expression of SOX4 in gastric tissues and cells was analyzed with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR),Western blotting,and immunohistochemical staining.The effects of SOX4 on gastric epithelial cell proliferation and colony formation were determined with CCK-8 and colony formation assays.A PCR array was used to screen downstream target genes involved in H.pylori-induced dysplasia mediated by SOX4.The transcriptional regulation and binding sites of the target gene MLH3 by SOX4 were elucidated with luciferase reporter assay,promoter truncation assay,and chromatin immunoprecipitation(ChIP).Results SOX4 expression was significantly increased in H.pylori-infected gastric tissues(P<0.05).Overexpression of SOX4 markedly enhanced the proliferation and colony formation abilities of normal gastric epithelial cells(P<0.05).Elevated SOX4 led to the dysregulation of MLH3 and other DNA damage repair-related molecules after H.pylori infection in gastric epithelial cells(|logFC|>1,P<0.05).H.pylori promoted MLH3 expression in gastric epithelial cells through SOX4.SOX4 transcriptionally activated MLH3 expression by binding to the 5th site of the MLH3 promoter.The increased expression of SOX4 and MLH3 is associated with poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients.Conclusion SOX4 is closely associated with H.pylori-induced dysplasia in gastric epithelial cells.Upregulation of SOX4 promotes H.pylori-related dysplasia by transcriptionally activating MLH3,leading to the imbalance of proliferation and colony formation in gastric epithelial cells.

Objective:To explore the neuropathological characteristics of brain tissues from autopsy of patients with schizophrenia.Methods:Forty-two autopsy cases from National Human Brain Bank for Health and Disease, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University from January 2013 to December 2024 were selected as research subjects, among which, 21 were schizophrenia patients(schizophrenia group) and 21 were non-schizophrenia patients (non-schizophrenia group). Clinical data of patients from the two groups were compared. HE staining was used to detect the pathological changes such as infarction, hemorrhage and arteriosclerosis in the brain tissues, silver-nitrate staining was used to detect the amyloid plaques in the brain tissues, Congo red staining was used to detect the pathological changes related to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) in the brain tissues, modified Gallyas silver staining was used to detect the neurofibrillary tangles in the brain tissues, and immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expressions of phosphorylated tau protein, β-amyloid protein (Aβ), TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43), and α-synuclein in the brain tissues. Alzheimer's disease neuropathologic change (ADNC), primary age-related tauopathy (PART), limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE), aging-related tau astrogliopathy (ARTAG), Lewy body disease (LBD), and cerebrovascular disease (CVD)-related pathological changes in the brain tissues were evaluated, and differences in positive rates of the above pathological changes were compared.Results:No significant difference in gender, age of death, brain weight, or apolipoprotein E genotype was noted between the schizophrenia group and non-schizophrenia group ( P>0.05). Six schizophrenia patients exhibited low-to-intermediate ADNC, including 4 with low ADNC and 2 with intermediate ADNC. Compared with the non-schizophrenia group, the positive rates of ADNC- and CVD-related pathological changes in the schizophrenia group were significantly higher (0 vs. 28.6%; 9.5% vs. 47.6%, P<0.05). No significant differences in positive rates of PART-, LATE-, ARTAG-, and LBD-related pathological changes were noted between the schizophrenia group and non-schizophrenia group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Schizophrenia patients show high proportions of ADNC- and CVD-related pathological changes, but relatively low ADNC severity.

Objective To investigate the effects of composite nanoparticles E/Ce@MCSNs loaded with epigallocatechin-3-gallate(EGCG)and cerium dioxide(CeO2)on the odonto/osteogenic differentiation of human stem cells from the apical papilla(SCAPs)and macrophage polarization under inflammatory conditions.Methods E/Ce@MCSNs were synthesized and characterized.Cell viabil-ity of SCAPs and RAW 264.7 cells treated with varying concentrations of E/Ce@MCSNs was assessed via CCK-8 assay.The antioxidant enzyme-mimetic activity of E/Ce@MCSNs was evaluated.Under simulated inflammatory conditions,intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)scavenging capacity was measured via DCFH-DA fluorescent probe.Alkaline phosphatase(ALP)staining/activity,alizarin red staining/semi-quantitative analysis,and RT-qPCR were performed to detect odonto/osteogenic differentiation markers,in-cluding dentin sialoprotein(DSPP),ALP,runt-related transcription factor 2(Runx-2),type Ⅰ collagen(COL-Ⅰ),and osteopontin(OPN)in SCAPs.The effects of E/Ce@MCSNs on the odontogenic/osteogenic differentiation of SCAPs under this condition were eval-uated.RT-qPCR were used to analyze cytokine expression(TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,iNOS,TGF-β,IL-10)and secreted TNF-α/IL-6 levels in RAW264.7 cells.The concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 in cell cul-ture supernatants were measured by ELISA.Results E/Ce@MCSNs exhibited excellent biocompatibility at concentrations≤100 μg/mL.They demonstrated potent ROS-scavenging activity(P＜0.05)and sig-nificantly enhanced ALP activity(P＜0.001),promoted calcium nodule formation(P＜0.001),and upregulated odonto/osteogenic gene expression(DSPP,ALP,Runx-2,COL-Ⅰ,OPN)in SCAPs under inflammatory conditions(P＜0.05).In RAW264.7 cells,E/Ce@MCSNs downregulated pro-inflammatory cytokines(TNF-α,IL-1 β,IL-6,iNOS)(P＜0.01)and upregulated anti-inflammatory factors(TGF-β,IL-10)(P＜0.001),while reducing TNF-α and IL-6 secretion(P＜0.001).Conclusion E/Ce@MCSNs exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in apical periodontitis by scavenging excessive ROS,thereby promoting odonto/osteogenic differentiation of SCAPs.

Reporting guidelines are structured checklists for researchers to follow when reporting spe-cific types of studies.As researches conducted in real-world settings to address practical issues,implementa-tion research has stringent requirements for the replicability of result and the transparency of reporting,making its reporting guidelines particularly important.This paper systematically introduces the reporting guidelines in the field of implementation science,outlines their classification systems and scopes of applica-tion,and focuses on explaining the core characteristics and functions of five key reporting guidelines,inclu-ding the Standards for Reporting Implementation Studies(StaRI),Reporting guidelines for implementation and operational research,the Template for Intervention Description and Replication(TIDieR),the Frame-work for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications-Enhanced(FRAME),and recommendations for specifying and reporting implementation strategies.Furthermore,combined with the PEDALs research paradigm in im-plementation science,this paper further clarifies the specific application pathways for reporting guidelines and discusses directions for refinement,aiming to provide references for researchers to select appropriate reporting guidelines.

Sustained inflammatory responses are closely related to various severe diseases,and inhibiting the excessive activation of inflammasomes and pyroptosis has significant implications for clinical treatment.Natural products have garnered considerable concern for the treatment of inflammation.Huanglian-Wumei decoction(HLWMD)is a classic prescription used for treating inflammatory diseases,but the necessity of their combination and the exact underlying anti-inflammatory mechanism have not yet been elucidated.Inspired by the supramolecular self-assembly strategy and natural drug compatibility theory,we successfully obtained berberine(BBR)-chlorogenic acid(CGA)supramolecular(BCS),which is an herbal pair from HLWMD.Using a series of characterization methods,we confirmed the self-assembly mechanism of BCS.BBR and CGA were self-assembled and stacked into amphiphilic spherical supra-molecules in a 2:1 molar ratio,driven by electrostatic interactions,hydrophobic interactions,and π-πstacking;the hydrophilic fragments of CGA were outside,and the hydrophobic fragments of BBR were inside.This stacking pattern significantly improved the anti-inflammatory performance of BCS compared with that of single free molecules.Compared with free molecules,BCS significantly attenuated the release of multiple inflammatory mediators and lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced pyroptosis.Its anti-inflammatory mechanism is closely related to the inhibition of intracellular nuclear factor-kappaB(NF-κB)p65 phosphorylation and the noncanonical pyroptosis signalling pathway mediated by caspase-11.

Objective To explore the home rehabilitation experience of individuals with fully magnetically levitated left ventricular assist device,and to provide a basis for developing scientific nursing intervention plans and follow-up strategies for clinical practice.Methods Using phenomenological research methods,a semi-structured interview was conducted on 13 patients with fully maglev left ventricular assist device implantation in a tertiary A comprehensive hospital in Wuhan from September to October 2022.Colaizzi's 7-step analysis method was used to analyze the data and extract themes.Results A total of 3 themes and 9 subthemes were extracted,including complex emotions in home rehabilitation(challenges for new characters,anxieties and concerns,regaining new life and full of confidence),difficulties in home self-management(lack of professional knowledge,insufficient exercise,difficulty in managing pump cable bag wounds,weak ability to recognize and respond to external controller alarms),and needs for home rehabilitation(need for continuity of care,desire for more social support).Conclusion Complex emotional experiences and many difficulties and needs exist in the home rehabilitation process of patients after implantation of full magnetic levitation left ventricular assist device.Healthcare professionals should actively pay attention to the postoperative psychological changes of patients,strengthen pre-discharge training to improve patients'self-management ability,and actively build a multi-party Internet home rehabilitation management platform to improve the rehabilitation quality of patients.
